OK, George here and so glad we aree back to normal after last week’s disruptions so I am wanting to get our natural rhythm back and so here is the Monday Open Thread just in time for this new week! BBC bias bothering you? Detail it right now….we are all ears.
Poor old Labour Peer Lord Ahmed. Having gone a bit under the radar since that unfortunate business when he was jailed after being caught sending and receiving text messages at the wheel minutes before he was involved in a fatal crash on the M1 – he suddenly pops up again – this time allegedly offering a $10m bounty for the capture of US Presidents Obama and Bush. The BBC does cover … Continue reading
One of my favourite songs is called “I can’t stand up for falling down” and that certainly seems to be the position that the Coalition holds with at least some sections of the BBC. (I suppose even the very word “Coalition” has a certain significance for the BBC has a disturbing tendency to allege that this is purely a Conservative government, thus giving the Lib-Dem element a degree of helpful cover … Continue reading
What is a “Massacre”? “The wanton or savage killing of large numbers of people, as in battle. The act or an instance of killing a large number of humans indiscriminately and cruelly” says the dictionary, pedantically. Ten years ago this month, the media, including the Guardian and the BBC, reported a fairy tale. A massacre had taken place in the Palestinian city of Jenin in the West bank. This eventually … Continue reading
Cassie posted this in the Open Thread section and we believe it deserves a far wider audience than might see it in the comments section….a few Liberals might see the light….and come over to the Dark Side. http://ricochet.com/main-feed/Conservatives-Have-All-the-Best-Stories “Conservatives Have All the Best Stories” Biased BBC contributor Alan adds…. “It is low key but somehow extraordinary and mouth opening stuff. The speaker being a freelance journalist who once a Liberal, now, after … Continue reading
My story about Sally Osman contained a major error. I linked her to the wrong Make Believe organisation – for which I apologise unreservedly. I accept that such sloppiness unfortunately plays into the hands of those who defend the BBC. However, she does now work for Sony Europe, an organisation which is clearly busting a gut to flaunt its green credentials. My general point is that it seems no coincidence that at a time … Continue reading
Time for a new one of these. I’m watching Nicky Campbell on BBC The Big Questions ask “Is God a woman” as I write this. Can’t wait for the disproportionately large number of Muslims that make up the audience answer. Hang on – none in this morning. How odd.
Yes, it’s one of those stories the BBC seems rather averse to covering. B-bbc contributor Alan says… “One of the major contenders for election as Mayor of London has been caught out, red eyed and red handed, faking tears for the camera….tears are not the only things being faked…it seems the ‘genuine” Labour supporters clammering for another Livingstone term of office were in fact actors. How do I know this? … Continue reading
Biased BBC’s Alan notes; “Whilst the BBC is able to hide its dirty washing under cover of the Freedom of Information Act’s get out clause….’for the purposes of art, journalism or literature’ it is not above using Art, Journalism or Literature to slip us some hokey leftwing propaganda under the radar. BBCR4 ran ‘Who’s Angry now?‘ checking out the protest song movement for signs of life now the Tories are … Continue reading
Russia TV picked up on this article in the BBC in the Daily Mail. They then got in contact with me and I’ll be doing an interview with them on Monday on the topic of BBC bias. Will let you know how it goes.
